Framed by 790sqm of manicured gardens in the prestigious Prospect Hill precinct, the meticulous transformation of exquisite Victorian “Sherwood” has undoubtedly created one of Camberwell’s finest family homes. The beauty of its glorious gardens and the charm of its original façade form an irresistible introduction to fully renovated spaces that, in the hands of heritage architect Brett Gilbert, honour the home’s architectural history while conveying the utmost in contemporary luxury. Executed with uncompromising attention to detail, the beautifully resolved interiors are defined by generous proportions, quality craftsmanship and a range of premium materials selected to endure. The result is a residence of consummate quality and timeless sophistication, designed for any and every stage of family life. Essentially rebuilt behind its enchanting double-fronted façade, a series of sumptuous rooms follow the footprint of the original design, placing a generous formal living room with traditional fireplace and display storage, two principal bedroom suites, and a ground-floor powder room either side of an arched central hall. Invisible from the street, a magnificent contemporary extension unfolds beneath high ceilings, with expansive stacker doors blurring the boundary between open-plan living areas (gas fireplace), surrounding alfresco entertaining (built-in BBQ kitchen and drinks fridge), an elevated pool with cabana, and the lush, landscaped rear garden. Reinforcing the home’s exceptional standard, a Calacutta stone kitchen features a broad waterfall island, integrated fridge/freezer, Miele appliances, including 900mm induction cooktop, steam oven, warming drawer and twin pyrolytic ovens, and a fully equipped butler’s pantry with second dishwasher and extensive storage. A feature cellar and tasting room with double fridge, bar/storage and racking for 36 dozen bottles further enhances the home’s entertaining credentials. Two lavish ground-floor main bedrooms include one with walk-in robe and ensuite, the other featuring an expansive walk-in robe with extensive storage and dressing, double ensuite with egg bath and private north-facing deck. Upstairs, two deluxe bedrooms with built-in robes and desks form an ideal children’s domain, accompanied by a light-filled retreat with twin window seats and an elegant family bathroom with separate powder room. In addition to carefully coordinated premium finishes, other appointments include ducted heating/air conditioning, high ceilings and extensive custom storage, double glazing, electric blinds, plantation shutters, wide-board oak floors, poolside cabana with outdoor shower and powder room, garden irrigation, video intercom entry, alarm and CCTV security, an internally accessed tandem garage with rear access and secure parking for up to three vehicles.
